    Coin Bend

    What I believe D ICE R is getting at, is this - the problem isn't that you don't have strong convincers. It's that you're performing a coin bend in the wrong context. Believe it or not, you actually pinpointed the problem yourself in your original post - when you performed for people who were...

    CEDthegeek NEW Website

    Glad to hear it :) Reverhart pretty much said the main thing - your contact page is too casual and sounds unprofessional. I'd also remove the myspace reference and change your email - get something @cedthegeek if at all possible; if not, perhaps something like cedthegeek@gmail.com - the...

    How to stand out among other magicians...?

    Stand out. Be yourself. Or someone else will come along the very next day, and they'll be themselves, and your audience will forget you ever existed.

    CEDthegeek NEW Website

    Hi Ced, Nice to see you taking some initiative in making a site. A bit of feedback, if you want to know - if you don't, that's fine, I won't judge, just ignore the below. From an insider point of view, the title page reminded me instantly of BBM's Karnivals... Just so you know... That's not...

    A force in the form of dealing cards?

    Ooh, damn, Tom Baxter is a freaking genius. I love the guy - and he's so humble.

    In a street setting, what I'd do is this. Invest in a magic briefcase. Inside the briefcase, compartmentalise, and use one section to store a contained of water. If you were performing this at a restaurant, you probably wouldn't perform it at every table, since obviously you can only carry so...

    Cassidy's Fundamentals

    lol! Not a problem KoS. If and when you're ready to tackle some of the stuff you're thinking of (concepts and applications) - let me know, more than happy to help.

    A force in the form of dealing cards?

    Try The Impossible Force. Magician deals through the deck, spec says stop anywhere, can change their mind, and the dealt to card is the force card.

    I don't know, lol. I've always been a bit biased towards my creative side. However, relatively recently, some other things have popped up and I guess I've found another outlet, or another vision for how I want to live my life. Just different parts of who I am, I guess. I'm currently studying...

    Not as of yet. Do you have a recommendation for him? He's pretty high on the list I've got to check out but I'm happy with the people I'm looking into at the moment too, so yeah.

    That's honestly just ridiculous. There's no way I'm carrying that around every time I leave the house, checking to see that all my **** is there. That's one good example of things I don't perform because of prop issues. Alchemical Tools has a few nice effects, but for each one, I have a...

    Theatre of the Mind is pretty much exclusively a book of effects. It's very good, and there's a big range of effects. I've got a few Paul Brook items. One in the Hand, Two in the Bush, Juxtapose, Underhanded, Alchemical Tools, and Chrysalis of a Polymath. I like the first two, but wouldn't...

    I currently have two areas I want to pursue. Firstly, I want to be an actor. I already am, technically, a professional actor, but I would like to be able to make a decent living off of it in the future. Secondly, after I graduate, I would like to work as an investment banker. Very different, I...

    This is Magic - Aim High

    To everyone who has responded here: thank you. Particularly the above three - Mike, Steve and AoS, to whom I haven't yet responded. Steve, I like your explanation of things. And I can certainly appreciate the imagination of a writer, a close friend of mine is as well, and I can definitely...
